WIP Wednesday

So busy at the moment, I'm sorry my blogging has dropped off a bit. I'm not really finding much time or enthusiasm for crafting lately.

Yesterday morning I helped my daughter's pre-school with their visit to the local allotments. They got to see raspberry plants, potatoes being dug out of the ground, peas in a pod and even a very rare sweetie tree that they were all able to pick a sweet from ;-)

This morning I was busy doing some work for a friend and it seems to have rather tired me out! I'm looking forward to spending an hour or two this afternoon sat on my sofa and finishing off my blanket edging.

I've got another round of treble crochet to go and then I think I'm going to do a round of the purple double crochet stitches again to frame it. Just need to give it a gentle block after that and it will be finished :-)

My Dad's socks now have a heel but haven't really progressed much beyond that. We're planning a long-ish car drive in the next few days though so I can hopefully work on them then.

Such bright projects! I forgot to remember your cast on tut from the other day. I am doing felted hot pads from the center out and just had to wing it. I wasn't near a computer to go look for your instructions. Now, hoping I can commit it to memory!

About Me

I'm a craft loving mother of four children. I taught myself to knit and crochet so I could enjoy creating colourful designs for my children and my home. I love bright colours and finding the right yarns to really show
off a pattern.

I hope you enjoy reading my blog, please drop me a
comment if you've got a moment or link to your own blog if you have one.
I love to read what fellow crafters have been up to :-)
